I learned finance by doing it, not studying it. I learned leadership the same way, inside one of the largest and most complex government systems in the world, where the margin for abstract thinking is very small.Over a decade later, I work at the intersection of strategy, operations, and finance in NYC government leading teams, managing budgets, and navigating the kind of complexity that only reveals itself from the inside.I write about leadership, career growth, and what it actually takes to move things forward inside complex organizations. Not from theory, from the inside, where the stakes are real.If any of it is useful to you, I am glad it found you.
